My Boyfriend Has So Many Problems. Would These Things Make You End the Relationship?

Question by AL: My boyfriend has so many problems. Would these things make you end the relationship?
Hey, I’m 22 and my boyfriend is 29. We have been dating for 1 year now.
I know that there are problems in every relationship, but I feel like mine has WAY too many. I’m not trying to nit-pick but there are some serious things that are bothering me. Would these things bother you, and would they make you end your relationship? I’ll try to make the list short…

-Hes 29 and still lives at home.
-He got fired 6 months ago, and has yet to put in one application.(Hes just “bumming it on unemployment)
-He got fired for borrowing too much money-(To gamble with)
-He has a gambling problem (although it has gotten better but I think just due to the fact he doesn’t have much money)
-He never Graduated high school or went to get his GED
-His only job he had for 12 years was working at a pizza place as a supervisor.
-He has depression and anxiety
-He will often say “Im not in the MOOD to do anything” and blame it on his anxiety/depression
-He has gone to rehab for pain pill addiction (But is now clean- but it worries me he will go back)
-He gets medication for his “moods” its a mood stabilizer and he sells them to his friend-for $ $
-He no longer has a car, we have to take my car EVERYWHERE and it’s getting annoying!

I don’t know what to do anymore. If I bring up any of these issues I will “stress” him out and hes not in the “mood” to ever talk about it.
–Would these things make you end the relationship, or would you stick it out to see if it gets better? Any advice would be great! Thank you!

I’d dump him.

He uses people – just because he’s moody doesn’t mean he isn’t using you.

And by the way, when you dump him, you should tell him WHY you are dumping him. Tell him that he really has a choice about how to live his life. He can either try harder or lose the things he loves.
